Hi! I was there once in January and it was pretty chilly, in the 40 degree range at night. I would definitely bring something warm. I think we have Vegas girls here who can tell you more...have fun

I've been in NYC and Las Vegas during Christmas where they both had snow, although Vegas is less likely to have snow than NYC during that time...given that I freeze if the temp drops below 65 (yes, I'm a whimp), I say bring super warm clothes.

The desert is always a bit chilly at night, the day time is fairly nice in Southern Nevada during the winter.
I don't know that I ever used my winter coat when we lived there. As far as snow in Vegas, it does not happen on the strip but a bit north of the strip. Anyway its a nice time of year.

It's difficult in the winter, especially for visitors... because you'll be in the casinos a lot of the time but probably walking The Strip the rest of the time.

I'd suggest layers, with a windbreaker-type jacket. It's the wind, more than anything, that gets you.

Vegas is definitely warmer then NYC but still it can get pretty cold , especially at night. New York is just a bummer, no snow for couple of years but still freaking cold

I was there in january 2008 for my birthday. It was just cold!! I wore my wintercoat when I went outside.

For the wedding I need something to cover up, because I feel freeze my butt off, I'm afraid
My weddingdate is december 18.
